kindred soul here, except that i do have mathematical aptitude. really, all aerospace jobs involve pretty high-order math in one way or another. basically you have to be either an engineer, a physicist, a chemist (probably combustion), a material scientist, a programmer, or preferably a combination of the above in order to be in aerospace, though i suppose economics is a possibility, and for the less mathematically-inclined, marketing, political science, and law all have their places.

EDIT: i'd guess that it'll pretty much be the same in 20 years for aerospace/launch industry itself, but there will probably be lots of other industries in space by then.

I'm a journalist, I'm currently working in financial journalism but I did a lot of work for the defense and aerospace sector. I used to cover FIDAE air and space shows. A friend from that time does Public Relations for Chile's biggest aerospace company. That's an option. You could work for an organization like the Ansary X Prize Foundation. You would not need to be a math wizard, but you still need to learn enough to avoid looking like a fool in front of the engineers.

And yes, pilots need to know a lot of math so they can study aerodynamics, navigation and stuff. For personal experience maybe you can opt for something else like parachuting?

You don’t necessarily need to fly to be important to an aerospace company. Astronauts can’t sell their ships by themselves, after all.

As for law and space, yes that’s a big field too. Aerospace law very much started in 1944 in the Chicago International Convention on Civil aviation. Read that to see if it’s the kind of thing you would be interested in studying.

Maths isn't all that difficult really though Texan. It's all rules, that make pretty patterns. Personally, I'm rubbish at mental math, it takes me ages, but I know the how and why of things, enabling me to use a calculator. Don't be put off, there's so many opportunities that need math.

As an ex-engineer, I can personally attest that if you can't crank the serious numbers, don't go there. That said, I really don't think law would be the second best option for a non-number cruncher to get into space.

Best case, you're more likely to end up arguing lawsuits regarding intellectual property, liability for the space tourists who will unavoidably get killed, and maybe even asteroid property rights - all on the ground. The best way for a lawyer to get into space would be to make millions and then buy a ticket.

Pilots do need to know math, but not quite at the same level as engineers. Perhaps you do have enough aptitude - check it out. Even if you fly as a space tourist you'll likely be required to have some related training.

Try geography/geology. Its got almost no complex maths and involves lots of travel and colouring-in! It will get you on space-flights even though you will initially know no more than anyone else about where you are going and may be no help when you arrive!
